Which side of the plane to sit from Manchester Airport (Manchester) to Mikonos Airport (Mykonos)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the most dramatic sections of the Swiss Alps, the stunning turquoise waters of the Adriatic coastline, and the iconic aerial approach into the Cyclades featuring Delos and Rhenia.
French Heartland
Scenic views of the diverse agricultural landscapes and rivers of Eastern France.
Central Alps
Spectacular panoramas of the highest Swiss and Italian peaks, including snow-capped glaciers.
Adriatic Coast
Follows the beautiful coastline of Croatia, Montenegro, and Albania with crystal clear water.
Attica Peninsula
Panoramic views of the Greek mainland and the sparkling Saronic Gulf near Athens.
Delos and Rhenia
Unparalleled views of the sacred island of Delos and its turquoise lagoons on the final approach.
The right side is the clear winner for scenery. For the best Alpine views, ensure your flight is during daylight hours and request a seat ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. On final approach into Mykonos, the right side usually provides a classic view of the white-washed Cycladic architecture and the historic island of Delos.
Northern England
Immediate views of the Peak District and the rolling hills of the Pennines after departure.
Austrian Alps
Distinguished views of the eastern limestone Alpine ranges as the flight crosses central Europe.
Balkan Interior
Rugged and mountainous terrain across Serbia and North Macedonia.
Aegean Sea
The vast expanse of the deep blue Aegean dotted with small, uninhabited rocky islets.
Tinos Island
A magnificent close-up of the rugged coastline and terraced hills of Tinos just before touchdown.
Choose the left side for morning departures to avoid direct sun glare. It provides excellent views of the Balkan mountains mid-flight. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the dramatic entry into Greek airspace over the northern Aegean islands.
